Dr. Václav Treitz (1819-1872) William E Ladd (1880-1967)
Slide 11-

Ladd Procedure Alexander Bill, a student of Ladd, modified the procedure by suturing the duodenum to the fascia overlying the right kidney and the cecum to the left inner abdominal wall in an attempt to prevent recurrent volvulus. Ladd’s Bands Two patterns of colon malposition with Ladd’s bands obstructing the duodenum
Slide 12-

Epidemiology Incidence: 1 in 6,000 to 1 in 200 live births Autopsy findings suggest that 0.5 to 1% of the population is affected Male to Female ratio 2:1 75 % present in the first month of life 90 % present in the first year of life 70% of patients with heterotaxy have malrotation
Slide 13-

Features of questionable malrotation include: Asymptomatic/incidental findings in investigating for reflux (fussiness, arching, apneic events, reactive airways, pneumonia) Intermittent vomiting No signs of acute illness. Features of intermittent or partial volvulus or obstructing Ladd's bands include: Intermittent vomiting No signs of acute illness Intermittent abdominal pain (typically post-prandial) Weight loss. Summary of Clinical Findings
Slide 14-

Features of obstruction without ischemia (midgut volvulus without vascular compromise) include: Bilious vomiting Crampy abdominal pain in waves Non-tender abdomen Non-distended abdomen No severe physiological disturbance. Features of obstruction with ischemia (midgut volvulus with vascular compromise) include: Acutely ill patient with severe acute abdominal pain Bilious vomiting Tachycardia Tachypnea Abdominal tenderness Acidosis Signs of peritoneal catastrophe (re-bound and guarding). Summary of Clinical Findings

Syndromes Associated with Malrotation Apple-peel Intestinal Atresia Cornelia de Lange Syndrome Cantrell Syndrome Cat-eye Syndrome Chromosomal abnormalities (Trisomies 13, 18, and 21) Coffin-Siris Syndrome Familial Intestinal Malrotation Heterotaxy (asplenia, polysplenia) Marfan Syndrome Meckel Syndrome Mobile Cecum Syndrome Prune Belly Syndrome
Slide 16-

Anatomic Anomalies Associated with Malrotation Absence of kidney and ureter Biliary atresia Congenital diaphragmatic hernia Duodenal or small-bowel stenosis or atresia Duodenal web Gastroschisis Hirschsprung disease Imperforate anus Intestinal pseudo-obstruction Intussusception Malabsorption Meckel’s diverticulum Omphalocele Pyloric Stenosis

Contrast Enema
Slide 24-

Nonrotation Malrotation with normal position of cecum in right lower quadrant
Slide 25-

Contrast Enema 80% of patients with malrotation demonstrate an abnormal position of the cecum 20% of infants with malrotation have a normal cecal position 15% of patients with normal rotation have a mobile cecum Does not show the volvulus as well as the upper GI
Slide 26-

Upper GI
Slide 27-

ppt slide no 27 content not found
Slide 28-

Rules of the Upper GI Evaluate the duodenum on the first upper GI on every patient Document the first pass of barium through the duodenum Document the duodenum in the frontal and lateral projections
Slide 29-

Performing the Upper GI Concentrate on the duodenum Control the barium Moderate amounts, don’t over-distend the stomach An enteric tube adds additional control Turn the patient with purpose Avoid placing the right side down until you are ready to evaluate the duodenum
Slide 30-

Performing the Upper GI With the right side down allow moderate amount of barium to pass into the duodenum Once barium enters the duodenum quickly place the patient flat to evaluate the duodenal sweep Once the DJJ is documented in the frontal view quickly turn the patient lateral to document it in this projection
Slide 31-

Normal position of the DJJ on Upper GI Frontal view DJJ is as cephalic as the duodenal bulb DJJ is no further to the right than the left pedicle of the adjacent vertebra Lateral view The 2nd portion of the duodenum descends posteriorly in the retroperitoneum The 4th portion of the duodenum ascends posteriorly in the retroperitoneum just anterior to the descent of the 2nd portion of the duodenum
Slide 32-

Frontal Lateral
Slide 33-

Frontal view shows the position of the duodenal bulb (arrow), which is superimposed over the gastric antrum, and inferior displacement of the duodenojejunal junction (arrowhead) Frontal view shows a similar inferior position of the duodenojejunal junction (arrow); * = duodenal bulb.

Error and Pitfalls Not seeing the first pass of barium Oblique positioning in the AP projection Mobility of the DJJ

What do we do when we don’t know... Show the case around to our colleagues Follow the barium to the cecum Turn the UGI into a small bowel follow- through Do a contrast enema Repeat the study in a few days

One study found a false positive rate of 15% among pediatric radiologists. The ligament of Treitz is not a fixed position in infants. The underlying problem in malrotation is a short root of the mesentery. In difficult cases the length of the mesenteric pedicle can assessed by determining the distance between the cecum and the DJJ either by small bowel follow through or a combination of an upper GI and a contrast enema
